Soil: Soil is on an alluvial cone formed by the Tunuyan River. Its first layer has a sandy-loam profile, with small colluvial stones and calcium carbonate deposits that reach 60 cm deep. The next layer is sandy, with abundant medium-sized colluvial stones at a depth of 1.5 m. Below this, there is an underlying layer defined predominantly by 30 cm thick limestone that sits on top of a sandy layer with colluvial stones.
